Tina’s POV:I called Evan more than ten times, but no one answered.Mom, who watching anxiously from the side asked, “How’s it? Is the call connected?”“No, Evan has been refusing to answer my calls,” I said dejectedly.Upon hearing that, she looked even more anxious. “Oh, no, this is going to be troublesome. Listen to me. Hurry up and go to his office to look for him.”“Mom, I don’t want to go!” I said.“You have to go, even if you don’t want to go! If you don’t want to go alone, I will go with you. Let’s go. Hurry up and change your clothes.” she urged.I pounded on the sofa impatiently and said, “Mom, can you not be like this? You are giving me a lot of pressure. I am annoyed. Do you know that?”“I’m doing this because I’m worried about you. If your marriage with Mr. Carter falls through, think about how our family will live in the future. How will others see you and the Walter family?”Upon hearing that, I leaned back and lay on the sofa.I was on the verge of breaking down and fe
Evan’s POV:Seeing that she was about to suffocate, I reluctantly let go of her.If she had not been hurt badly yesterday and I didn’t want to hurt her again, I wouldn’t have been able to control myself.Her entire body was weak, and she fell weakly onto the chair. Her eyes filled with fear.“Evan don’t touch me again…” she said.Looking at her tearful eyes that were filled with fear, she was simply like a frightened dear. She was very beautiful, so much so that her look could intoxicate people.My emotions were affected by her fear and vulnerability. I hugged her gently and said, “Be good and listen to me. You are not allowed to think about anything else, and you are not allowed to date other men!”She just looked at me and didn’t say anything else.“Do you hear that?” I said as I raised her chin, looking deeply into her eyes.Her eyes flickered as she avoided my gaze. “Evan, I beg you not to force me anymore!”I raised her chin and said in a low voice, “If you don’t behave, I will b
Evan’s POV:“Evan…”“Hurry up,” I said. Seeing her like this, I became a little impatient.After getting back into the car, I didn’t say anything and turned on the ignition as soon as Tina fastened her seatbelt.Just as my car left the car parking, my eyes fell on the silver Bentley coming towards us.Seeing this, I was shocked as I suspected that this car belonged to Anya.As I took a closer look at the license plate, I realized it was indeed Anya’s car.‘Anya, also come to this place! She must have made an appointment with the man. It was rare for someone to come to such a high end restaurant alone to eat.’Thinking that my heart is filled with displeasure. “Tina, I have something to do now, so I can’t send you back!” I said, stopping on the car break, abruptly stopping the car on the roadside. “Please take a taxi by yourself!”She was jolted by the sudden stop of the car due to inertia and looked at me in shock. “Evan…”Seeing this, I felt a little uncomfortable and said, “Why don’
Anya’s POV:Left with no choice, I have to send Evan home.“Ding! Ding!”My phone kept buzzing, reminding me of incoming messages on Messenger.Evan’s expression suddenly turned serious, and he asked, “Whose message, is it? Give me your phone!”“Why should I let you see my phone?” I said, angrily while driving.Even though I didn’t look, I know that the message must have been sent from Kester. If Evan were to see it, he would certainly go berserk again.“Give me the phone!” He said as he tried to reach into my pocket to grab the phone.“I’m driving. Can you please stop making a scene!” I spoke.“Hurry up and give me the phone!”He continued to reach for the phone, regardless of my protest.In a moment of panic, I turned the steering wheel and the car instantly veered out of the lane, almost getting hit by the car behind mine.“Ah…”I was so scared that I broke out in a cold sweat. The car finally stopped in an emergency lane.The driver behind my car also seemed to frighten. He rolled
Coral’s POV:Upon seeing this, I was so frightened that I didn’t dare to speak and quickly took off the tissue to hand it to him.Mr. Carter wiped his face with the tissue. Then, he suddenly thought of something and said, “By the way, let’s take a round on the overpass now. Turned around and get on the overpass.”A few cars whizzed onto the overpass again.“Here it is. Stop the car!” he said.The driver hurriedly pulled over.“Find a few professional drivers and salvage a phone for me.” he said, displeased.He was hearing that I felt speechless. ‘It seems that Mr. Carter has thrown a cell phone again. And this time around, he throws into the sea.” I thought.However, I still felt a little strange. In the past, after he smashed his phone, he would immediately get a new one. Why did he want to search this time?“Got it, Mr. Carter!” I said.Tina’s POV:After I was left behind by Evan, I drove to look for Paul in a fit of anger.As soon as I stopped my top-notch luxury car in front of th
Evan’s POV:When I dialed back the customer service voice came from the other end of the land, “Hello, the phone you are trying to reach has been switched off….”“Fuck!” I said and threw the phone on the table and panted heavily.‘This damn woman didn’t take me seriously at all!’In the past, she was so submissive and humble in front of me, but now she dared to be so arrogant. Indeed, women could not be spoiled!“Mike track Anya’s current location,” I said.“Okay, Mr. Carter!” Mike said.After receiving the order, he left and Coral happened to come in. The two of them looked at each other anxiously and hurriedly went about their own business.“Mr. Carter, the phone is fixed!” Coral said.“Bring it here!”“There you go,” he said, respectfully handing the phone over.Anya’s phone had been fixed. The password had been unlocked, and the data had been restored.I turned on the phone and scrolled through it.This was her personal phone and a contact list only including several people, such
Evan’s POV:After I came to M city, I punished Anya for leaving me behind. Only then, I felt a little better.However, after I waited for more than twenty minutes, Anya didn’t come out of the bathroom. Thinking that something was not right, I went over and knocked.“Boom! Boom! Boom!”I knocked on the bathroom door heavily a few more times and shouted, “Anya, what are you doing in there? Get out now! If you keep staying inside, I will break in!”However, she didn’t reply or open the door.Holding my breath, I leaned over to hear a sound. However, when I didn’t hear any sound, I panicked and kicked the bathroom door open.Then, I turned on the lights.Anya curled up in the bathtub and her eyes were tightly shut. Her face was completely soaked in the water in a bathtub.“Anya what are you doing?” I asked.However, she didn’t reply. It seemed that she had already passed out.Seeing this my heart skipped a beat, and I hurriedly pulled her out of the water.“Anya… Anya…” I shouted.However
Anya’s POV:I slightly rolled my eyes and became conscious. I tried to get up the lay back after struggling to force myself up.At that moment, Evan hurriedly went forward to help me get up, saying, “Anya, what do you want? I will do it for you.”I looked at him and asked weekly, “Where I am?”“You are in the hospital.”Hearing this I cried out, “Hospital? Why I’m in a hospital?”He held my hands tightly and a hint of tenderness appeared in his eyes. He said, “Anya, I am sorry. Please don’t do such a thing again. Do you hear me? You almost scared me to death!”As he finished his words, his eyes turned red.It took me a while to recall what happened last night.‘I remembered, I probably had a depression attack when sitting in the bathtub. Then I didn’t know why I passed out.’“What time is it now?” I asked.“Its after 10:00 o’clock in the morning.” he said.Hearing that I was shocked and cried out, “What? Is it already after 10 o’clock?”Then. I struggled to sit up.I had made an appoi
Anya’s POV:I don’t know how long I have been unconscious.I suddenly woke up from my dream, “Kester… Kester…”“Anya, you are awake?”“Mommy, you are finally awake!”I opened my eyes groggily. What greeted my eyes was Miranda’s anxious expression, as well as Jason and Jerry’s adorable faces.“Jason! Jerry! Why are you here?”“Mommy, you are finally awake. Daddy send us here.”Upon hearing this, I struggled to sit up.“Anya, you are weak now. You must not get up.”Jason said with his tears, “Mommy, what’s wrong?”“Don’t be afraid. Mommy is fine. Where is Flora?”“Flora is sick. Daddy was afraid that there would be germs in the hospital. So, he didn’t let Flora come here.”“Where is Daddy?”“Daddy is waiting d
Anya’s POV:In the blink of an eye, Kester had stayed in the intensive care unit for two days.I also have been keeping watch outside the door for two days. Other than Miranda staying back to company me, everyone else had gone back.Tim was also advanced in years and didn’t continue to keep watch over Kester eventually. However, he comes to the hospital visit every day.“Doctor, how is Kester? Has he regained consciousness?”“Not yet.”“Can I go in and see him?”“Not yet, for now!”When I heard this, I stumbled and almost lost my balance.Miranda hurriedly supported me, “Anya, how are you?”“I am fine. I am just a little dizzy!”“Look at you. How can you take it if you carry on like this? Before Mr. Kester wakes up, you wouldn’t be able to take it anymore.”I tried my best to support my body and said
Evan’s POV:I also heard the news as well.When I heard that someone had fired a shot at the wedding, I was also terribly shocked.“Someone fired a shot at a wedding. Is Anya okay?”Coral reported, “I heard that Kester Helsen took a bullet for Miss Walter. Miss Walter is fine now. Kester Helsen is seriously injured and still in the hospital undergoing treatment. It was said that the bullet was 2 millimeters away from piercing his heart. He is not out of danger yet. Even if he wakes up, he will probably remain in a vegetative state in the future.”Hearing that I couldn’t help her gasped.Initially, I thought that no one could love Anya more than me. Now it seems that Kester loves Anya more than me.If I were in Kester’s shoes, I probably wouldn’t have instinctively taken a bullet for Anya in such an urgent situation.“Then, how is Anya now? Is she very sad?”&ldq
Anya’s POV:“Kester! Kester!” My eyes instantly widened as I threw myself into his arms and shook his body.“Kester, wake up! You must pull through!”The ambulance whizzed through the traffic without stopping for a moment.Less than ten minutes later, the ambulance arrived at the hospital.“Someone has been shot! Doctors, save him quickly!”The bodyguard carried Kester who was covered in blood and rushed into the hospital.When the doctor and nurses saw this, they were also badly shaken! After all in society, it was rare for people to be shot by a gun.Soon, Kester was sent to the emergency room.I followed him all the way. The white gown I wore was already covered in blood. I sank on the bench outside the emergency room, as if all my muscles and bones had been extracted.I was about to have a relapse. The depression that had troubled me for many years made me extremely di
Anya’s POV:I was also shocked, I was flabbergasted as I looked at Ellen.For the past few days, Kester had appeared uneasy and troubled. I had already guessed that something thorny must have happened.I had assumed that it was related to Evan all this while. I didn’t expect it to be connected to Ellen.Ellen walked up to me, “Miss Walter, I am now pregnant with Kester’s child. I don’t object to your marriage, but Mr. Helsen must give me and the child an answer.”I was dumbstruck. I couldn’t recover from my shock for a long time.“Anya, let me explain.” Kester instantly tried to explain.How was the truth right in front of my eyes? Any explanation would appear weak.“Oh, my goodness! Isn’t this the superstar Ellen?”“That’s right! I heard that Kester Helsen single-handedly groomed her until she became famous. So, she was also his secret lover.”“Gosh! There is going to be a good show to watch. Now, this is even more exciting than filming a movie.”“Tsk! Tsk! I didn’t come to today's w
Anya’s POV:On Kester’s side, many guests were attending the wedding, and there was also a special emcee to be a host for the wedding.The next day, I woke up early in the morning.The makeup artist and stylist began to work on my makeover. Rose, Daisy, and others had also changed into bridesmaids' dresses.As there were no elders present, Miranda stood in the elders on the bride's side.At eight o’clock in the morning, more than ten bridal cars set off in a majestic convey from the hotel.There was a joyous commotion outside the hotel. Kester bought more than ten groomsmen, and they headed for the hotel room together.“We are here for the bride.”“Mr. Helsen, we have to break the door down!” The groomsmen were causing a ruckus.The emcee directed the groomsmen as they livened up the atmosphere.There were not many bride-maids on my side. So, the bridegroom was not given a hard time. The room door was opened quickly.“Anya I love you.” Kester handed a bouquet to me.I smiled and took
Evan’s POV:Jenny was not my type at all, to begin with. In addition, I was feeling exasperated and didn’t want to say anything superfluous.When she saw my impatient look, she took a deep breath. “Evan, I know you are annoyed. But Miss Walter is already engaged. Why can't you let it go?”My eyes flickered. “Who said I can’t let it go?”“Evan, just let bygones be bygones! The weather is very good today. Why don’t we go out for a cruise in the sea?”“I am not in the mood!”“Evan…” Jennie tried to flirt coquettishly.Unfortunately, her actions made me even more disgusted. I have to work now. Please leave!”“Evan, I… I like you a lot. Can’t you just give me a chance?” She said.Jenny’s POV:I couldn’t care less about being reserved anymore and reached out to hug his arm.I had always been confident in my charm.However, I simply couldn’t conquer Evan.Nevertheless, I have always liked challenges with a high level of difficulty. The more unattainable a man was, the more I wanted him to kn
Evan’s POV:In the office, I sat on the leather chair. My face was terrifyingly ominous, but at the same time, it was ashen white.I had just undergone surgery yesterday. Although it was not a particularly major surgery, the scalpel was still used. It was very damaging to my overall well-being.Beep! Beep! Beep!Just then my phone rang. It was from Flora.“Hello, Baby!”On the video call interface, Flora leaned close to the screen. Her big eyes filled with worry, “Daddy, where are you now?”“What’s wrong baby?” My expression softened and revealed a trace of warmth.No matter how awful my mood was, as soon as I saw my daughter’s adorable face, all the awfulness instantly diminished considerably.“Daddy, did you not listen to the doctor? Did you secretly leave the hospital?” Flora looked with her big eyes. Her tiny face revealed a sensible manner that was incongruous with her young age.My eyes darted around. I didn’t want my daughter to worry and feel disappointed. “Er… No.”“Dad is ly
Anya’s POV:Around the evening, my phone rang.Beep! Beep! Beep!I looked at it and saw that it was called from Evan.“Kester, I have to take this call.”“Go ahead.”“Hello?” I walked to the bathroom and answered the call.Evan’s sullen voice comes out of the other end of the line. “Anya, where are you now?”I frowned and asked in a low voice. “What's the matter? Is there something urgent?”Evan said, “I want to see you.”“I am not free now. Let’s do it another day.”“No! Come at once. If you don’t, I will make you regret it.”Other than threatening me, Evan had no better way to get me to come to see him.“Evan, can you stop acting like this? If you continue to act like this, we can’t even remain friends anymore.”With that, I ended up the call.I couldn’t tolerate his foul habit of coercing me every time.I had already decided to marry Kester. No matter how difficult the road ahead was, I was duty-bound not to turn back.Evan’s POV:“Clatter!”After Anya ended the phone call, I slamm
